He will be encouraged to do things which could have been unthinkable a few years ago.
Who knew a several years ago that N. Korea would do two nuclear tests and we sat around, just shrugging and doing nothing?
Yea, that’s like saying the sun will rise tomorrow morning. Bad behavior is N. Korea’s norm.
P!
cow tipping is “bad behavior”
unprovoked torpedoing of ships in peacetime is an act of war
good post!
Thanks.
